Hi Everyone, 2007 is going to be my year to get into running. I've done Taebo/kickboxing for my cardio for like 10 years and am TIRED OF IT. So I'd like your advice. I tend to get cramps VERY easy even on an empty stomach; do you or did you get them early on? Do you run through them? Or...

Hey y'all I think I asked this before so forgive the redundancy but do you classify HST/HSC/Bootcamp type workouts that have some weights in them as a "cardio" workout or "weights" workout> I'm trying to do weights every other day and wonder how I fit in these workouts....?? So if I did ME...

Ladies, I need the salad doctors!!! I am getting "cleaner" with my diet every week but now I'm getting down to the nitty gritty and things like my beloved salads are perhaps needing some tweaking so they don't equal a slice of pizza, or a large pizza, calorie-wise. My problem is the...

Cathe, First of all, so good to see you 'back'!! I cannot wait to get the new DVDS!!! I have been doing a lot of tweaking with my workout routine after some serious overtraining on my part. I thought I knew a ton about fitness/working out but obviously some of it slipped my mind. I had...

TGIF everyone, I could use some help in clarifying some workout stuff as I fine tune my workout program for peak results. I recently posted here about 'hitting a brick wall' of a plateau and everyone was kind enough to put in some great words of advice. I'm re-motivated but want to be...

:o Has anyone else hit a plateau in weight loss that feels like a BRICK WALL that you cannot get over? AUGH!!! I truly, truly do not know what to do. I have gotten down to my leanest in years, am currently a size small top and size 8 pants and for my weight (now mind you I have refused...

:7 Ok we've all got mind tricks we use to keep us on track; dedicated to working out and eating right, correct? I won't bore you with my dorky mind games but I thought as I looked around my house, here are some ideas that the Cathe team (tongue in cheek here) could make for us addicts -...

:D Hey Y'all, Just curious, I've been reading some great threads on whether or not we count calories and how many meals we eat. Here's an add on ~ generally speaking, do you tend to watch or 'count' fat grams in what you eat?? I ask this because I try to just 'eat clean' which for me...

I am here at an office filling in and today is my usual "cheat day" and this girl had a JAR OF OREOS on her desk. I think I just had 8 of them. So, make me feel better, tell me something you eat on your cheat days so I can feel ok and not feel like I just gained 20 lbsLOL ;-)

:-) Good morning everyone. I think I'd seen a thread on this both here and on Video Fitness, but I'd really like to hear from anyone that changed their routine for their lower body by either going very light on weights or changing to pilates/toning type workouts only for lower body etc...

;( Well, I have given up ~ I realized that I have like 7 left feet when it comes to the (in my view) advanced choreography in Cathe's step videos. I just can't get it!! So rather than keep these new DVDs collecting dust, I put them up for sale on Amazon.com today; IMAX 3, Low Max, Imax2 +...

:) Hello everyone again, I just asked everyone's opinion on salad dressing. My last question then in the similar area would be - when trying to LOSE weight, get lean etc. do you all avoid red meat or just eat limited amounts? I never really avoided it, although I don't eat a lot of it,but if...

:) Hey Y'all, I am really trying to clean up my diet as I feel that it is the barrier to me losing the last 10 lbs!! Ugh. So as I want to focus on eating more salads; I am curious. Do you all go the no-fat dressing route, the full fat dressing or "low-fat" dressing? I have never been...

Hi Cathe, So glad to hear that you are on the mend!! I'll keep praying for ya!! On a side note, I am a relatively new Cathe addict but loving the results I am seeing. I have already purchased about 80% (I think) of your DVDs and as I've started doing some of the older ones, I realize how...

Hello Y'all, Anyone have any ideas on a retail place to buy just extra step risers, or do you have to get them online? Thanks! Kelly:D

:D I am still a newbie and even more new to doing step workouts. I did them years ago when Step Reebok and all that came out but now that I am doing all Cathe (and loving every freaking second!!!), I realize that I have 2 left feet big time when it comes to the 'complex' step moves. I don't...

(I posted this in open discussion also) Hi All, Quick question. I have the high step topper and 4 risers from my original step. I don't think these are enough risers for the high step workouts etc. BUT I am having a hard time telling - do those videos use 5 or 6 risers under the topper...

Hi All, Quick question. I have the high step topper and 4 risers from my original step. I don't think these are enough risers for the high step workouts etc. BUT I am having a hard time telling - do those videos use 5 or 6 risers under the topper? I'd like to know before I place yet...

:+ Ok, I feel like a clown!! Did anyone else have a hard time learning some of the choreography in Low Max and/or other step DVDS? Granted I've been out of the whole step aerobics thing for years. I originally did step back when Step Reebok etc. came out but the only videos I kept were those...

Hello Cathe, I hope you are healing and doing well!! I am still a relative newbie but, this should shock you ~ LOVING EVERY SECOND OF ALL OF YOUR WORKOUTS!! Now that I got that out, today I was doing Muscle Max for the first time. Quick question, when doing chest work with weights, lying...
